    Do I really need to remind this is free software made by benevolent developers? I get it it’s infuriating but it’s still in some way a gift you were given and seem unhappy with.

      If you give me a 1000 piece puzzle for free, but without the instructions or a box picture to go off of, you’ve done a nice thing by gifting me something but have also failed miserably as I’ll never fuckin solve that puzzle

        I’m not gonna say “most” but plenty of people prefer to do puzzles without looking at the box picture. It’s part of the challenge.

        Alternatively “lol you can’t figure out how to solve a puzzle without looking at the solution? lol dumbass”

        It’s a terrible analogy anyway because software is not analogous to a puzzle.

        Terrible analogy honestly. Feel free to not use this software, nobody will ever force you to use it.

        This is not software to entertain you. It’s a tool that you don’t understand how to use and choose to blame the people building it for free.

          It’s a tool that you don’t understand how to use and choose to blame the people building it for free failing to properly document their tool.

          Ftfy

          Just because it’s provided free doesn’t mean you’re off the hook for not telling people how it works, dumbass
